Savannah's Puppy Diary

Yesterday Daddy said Let's Bring Savannah To The Park and I got My Puppy Self to the Back Door before Momma could put her Boots on. Momma said I Wonder If This Dog Knows What We're Talking About and I tried to Just Look Like A Puppy and Not Let On that I have learned how to Speak People so I can Understand Most of What They Say.

When we got to The Park there was only One Dog there and Daddy said We've Seen This Dog Before And All He's Interested In Is That Green Ball. I ran up to that Dog anyway but he just Sniffed a Little bit and then Went Back To Chase The Ball. I tried to tell the Dog that if he Keeps Bringing That Ball Back his Person is just going To Keep Throwing It and What's The Sense Of That but I think that Dog just wants to Chase The Ball instead of Playing and Jumping In The Pool.

Momma and Daddy started to Walk around the Edges of the Park by the Fence so I had to Follow Them. I think they keep doing that in the park To Teach Me Who I Belong To and I have tried to Tell them that I Knew That the First Week I Was Here.

Daddy has been Taking Me For A Walk in the Mornings now but I usually Don't Do Too Much in the Grass because Daddy keeps the Leash too short and Still Wants me to Walk in a Straight Line. Well where's the Fun in That. If I really Have To Go then I will Pee in the Grass when I'm with Daddy but if I can Hold It then I wait for Daddy to bring me Back In The House and then he Tells Momma Savannah Didn't Have To Go and Momma Rolls Her Eyes and puts her Boots and Coat on and says Come On Savannah Let's Make This Quick. Then I go Back Outside with Momma and I don't really Make It Very Quick because there's always So Much To Smell Out There but then Momma starts saying Remind Me Again Why I Wanted To Get A Puppy Savannah and then that's My Cue to Do What I Have To Do so Momma will say Good Girl Savannah Good Girl instead of Finally Savannah Finally.

Sweet Pea has been Sleeping In My Bed every afternoon for Weeks now and I can't Make That Cat Understand that he has His Own Bed which Fits him Better than my Big Bed. I keep Nudging Sweet Pea with my Nose but he just Meows at me so I guess he doesn't Speak Puppy. I don't even think Sweet Pea speaks People because Momma has to tell That Cat the Same Thing at least Ten Times before he Listens and then Momma says A Cat Is A Cat And That's That.

Momma got upset with me Tonight because when she sat on the Sofa with Daddy I got right up there in The Middle and started pulling on Momma's Sweater and I wouldn't Stop It even though Momma said Stop It Savannah Stop It about six times. Momma finally Got Up and went to Sit On The Chair and then I got real Comfy with Daddy and we Sat There and Watched TV while Momma stayed in the Chair and Rolled Her Eyes. She does a lot of That lately and I don't know what it means but I don't think it's a Good Thing.

Daddy and Momma went to The Store today and they didn't put Sweet Pea in the TV Room with the Door Closed. And the other day when Momma went into Town she left Sweet Pea sleeping in My Bed and left me sleeping On The Sofa in the TV Room. Momma didn't even say Goodbye Savannah Be Good Now when she left and I think Momma was Sneaking Out The Door so I would Just Stay Sleeping and Not Bother Sweet Pea. Momma doesn't know that I was looking Out The Window and I saw her Go Out The Back Door and Get Into Her Car. I was Really Tempted to go into the Breakfast Room and Bark Real Loud at Sweet Pea so that Cat would Get Out of My Bed and Stay Out but then I just got Back Up On The Sofa and Went to Sleep till Momma came Home.

When Momma got back in the House Sweet Pea was still Sleeping in My Bed and I was on The Sofa and Momma said Well Now Looks Like Both Of You Were Good While I Was Gone Isn't That Nice That I Don't Have To Separate You Two When I Go Out. Sweet Pea just yawned at Momma and Went Back To Sleep but I got up from The Sofa and Wagged My Tail and put My Head on Momma's Leg and Momma said You're Such A Good Girl Savannah How Did We Get So Lucky To Find You.

I looked up at Momma and tried to Roll My Eyes but that Didn't Work at All. So I tried to tell Momma that I Am The Puppy And That's That but I don't know if she Understood Me but I did get a Biscuit for being a Good Girl. While Momma was putting the Groceries away I took the Biscuit to My Bed and started Crunching On It and the Crumbs were Going All Over Sweet Pea and he Finally Got out of My Bed.
